It's so not cool to impersonate a police officer. It's even worse if the person you stop just happens to be a real cop. Robert Lane, 25, had flashing lights on his SUV and what appeared to be a police badge in his hand - but the other bloke was the genuine officer. Lane unwittingly pulled over the off-duty New York detective on a Long Island highway. The detective got suspicious when Lane drove up alongside him, identified himself as an officer and flashed a small police badge. After trying to flee, Lane was arrested on charges of criminal impersonation and aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle.

What an idiot! Too easy to get those badges and lights and stuff. Too easy.
Hi FHB,
Not the brightest way to while away the time, is it! I agree with you entirely.
Keep smiling

But was it not in Australia a couple of days a go, that a guy was driving around in an armoured vehicle, knocking down cellphone towers and all?
now that has style.

Hi 2thless 1da,
Yes, you're right - the guy created a considerable amount of damage. And it was very hard for police to try and stop him.
Cheers
David
